In college my drama friends coerced me into trying out for the school musical. I auditioned and didn’t think much of it until I was told I got one of the lead roles. That musical was ‘Little Women’ and I was to play Theodore Laurence or ‘Laurie’. __ Part of that experience was reading the book ‘Little Women’ over winter break before we started practicing. I had always loved the movie, but the book was even more of a standout to me. I was able to pull so much inspiration from the depths of the story. It remains one of my favorite books. __ The play went well - even when I lost my voice a week before opening night. I learned a lot, gained some close friends, and even learned to stage kiss. Acting and singing in front of a 1000+ people is no joke. __________________________ #Concord #Massachusetts #Travel #Adventure #Exploration #LouisaMayAlcott #Alcott #LittleWomen #LittleMen #WomenAuthors #ClassicLiterature #Literature #Books #Bookish #Bookstagram #OrangeChairClassics #TheOrangeChair

“He ate and drank the precious words / His spirit grew robust / He knew no more that he was poor / Nor that his frame was dust / He danced along the dingy days / And his bequest of wings / Was but a book. What liberty / A loosened spirit brings!” - Emily Dickinson ____________________________ #Travel #NewEngland #Amherst #Massachusetts #Roadtrip #Adventure #Explore #Poem #Poetry #EmilyDickinson #WomenAuthors #Museum #ClassicLiterature #Literature #Books #Bookish #Bookstagram #OrangeChairClassics #TheOrangeChair

“In reality they all lived in a kind of hieroglyphic world, where the real thing was never said or done or even thought, but only represented by a set of arbitrary signs.” - Edith Wharton ____________________________ #Roadtrip #Travel #Adventure #Explore #NewYork #DutchmansLanding #RipVanWinkleBridge #HudsonRiver #Catskill #WomenAuthors #EdithWharton #TheAgeOfInnocence #ClassicLiterature #Literature #Books #Bookish #Bookstgram #OrangeChairClassics #TheOrangeChair

2012 was the year I started dating my wife, and for some reason my reading really slowed down. During that year I only really read ‘Peter Pan’ and ‘The Hobbit’, and simply took pictures with the other two books. (I didn’t actually end up reading ‘The Catcher in the Rye’ until the following year) __ The reason for my lack of reading had less to do with desire, and more to do with all the adventures I took Antonia on in that year. It was full of buried treasure, spontaneous poetry, kayaking, kingdom ruins, waterfalls and road trips. __ Some years in life I find its ideal to sacrifice something you love to learn to love something better. ______________________________________________ #ClassicLiterature #Literature #Books #Bookish #Bookstagram #Bookstack #TheCatcherInTheRye #JDSalinger #PeterPan #JMBarrie #TreesofNorthAmerica #TheHobbit #JRRTolkien #LOTR #OrangeChairClassics #TheOrangeChair

Since we’ve returned from our trip west I’ve been reading about what life was like traversing the wilderness in 1859. ‘The Prairie Traveler’ was an intriguing look into the past with all its dangers, struggles, misconceptions, and experiences. And I’m glad I could enjoy it from the comfort of my home. ______________________ #Roadtrip #Adventure #Exploration #Wanderlust #Travel #WildWest #RandolphBMarcy #ThePrairieTraveler #Books #Bookish #Bookstagram #ApplewoodBooks #OrangeChairClassics

It’s been a week since we had lunch at the Badlands and I’m already planning my next adventure with these two. There is no one else I’d rather explore with! _______________________ #Badlands #Adventure #Roadtrip #RedShirtTableOverlook #SouthDakota #Explore #OrangeChairMini #TheOrangeChair

Through the misty Black Hills, 200 feet beneath the earth, across the barren valleys, and atop the grassy cliff sides. Life in the West is ever changing. _______________________ #Roadtrip #SouthDakota #Badlands #BadlandsNationalPark #Adventure #Exploration #Wanderlust #Travel #States #OrangetoYellow #HowtheWestwasChaired
